    I cannot tell you how much this resonates with me as I watch my parents age. They have both lived in a society that has catered and coddled them their whole lives and now that they are finally getting to the point where they can’t produce for the machine anymore and are rapidly, painfully, loudly making sure we all know just how unfair it all is.

    Sorry, but you didn’t plan one moment for your future, I literally had to listen to your retirement plans which was “I’ve got kids” for the last 40 years.

    Yeah, I’m a little bitter.
